Phil Schiller, november 2: We are proud to tell you that so far our online store has had more orders for the new MacBook Pro than any other pro notebook before Apple, november 4: Apple is cutting prices for all of its USB-C adapters following a week of complaints about the MacBook Pro’s inconvenient port …

The new MacBook Pro is (again) what we expected after months of rumors: lighter, smaller, faster. And more expensive, of course. The main argument here is the shiny new Touch Bar, a customizable touch OLED display that supposedly allow users to access certain application functions faster and easier than through traditional keyboard shortcuts or mouse …

We expected a lot from a smartwatch. Maybe (probably) much more than what they could do by design. The first wave of devices have fallen short of their expectations, and the industry is apparently paying that mistake: The market intelligence firm IDC reported on Monday that smartwatch shipments are down 51.6 percent year-over-year for the third …

Apple is expected to launch the next generation of Mac computers at the Oct. 27 event that lots of users were waiting. The PostPC era has clearly eroded the relevance of these machines, but users still need a PC or a laptop to perform their work on a daily basis. It was about time, of …

Vlad Savov speaks on The Verge about the new Google Pixel / XL smartphones, and he gives reasonable arguments on behalf of this Google effort: Google’s invasion of that space is exciting, and the Pixel itself — when stripped of our constantly speeding expectations and preconceptions — is a highly advanced device with which Google …

That’s what most of the reviewers seem to think about the new iPhone 7 and the iPhone 7 Plus, which has good features but nothing that could really justify leaving a perfectly fine iPhone 6s/Plus for these. The differences are clearly there for iPhone 6/Plus users, but everyone seems to be not that convinced to …

The guys at The Verge have done a fine job by discussing how the new Lenovo Yoga Book came to life. This is a hardware device that, as Nilay Patel has said over at Twitter, is the first fascinating one in a long time. The new and impressive Instant Halo Keyboard won’t be perfect for many …

The Commission can only order recovery of illegal state aid for a ten-year period preceding the Commission’s first request for information in this matter, which dates back to 2013. Ireland must therefore recover from Apple the unpaid tax for the period since 2003, which amounts to up to €13 billion, plus interest. When Apple and …

But not at 07:00 AM, fortunately. I’d like to say I expect a big hardware refresh here -Apple Watch 2, MacBook Pro, Mac Pro, Apple Thunderbolt Display, maybe an Apple Home à la Amazon Echo-, but I really think the focus will be the new iPhone 7 and iPhone 7 Plus. Oh. And iPhone 7 …
